python exit loop early code example

Example 1: python exit for loop

# python 3

for x in range(1, 10):
    print(x)
    if x == 4:
        break
# prints 1 to 4

Example 2: python exit loop iteration

alphabet = ['a' , 'b' , 'c' , 'd' ]
for letter in alphabet:
  if letter == 'b' :
    continue
    #continues to next iteration
  print( letter )
for letter in alphabet:
  if letter == 'b' :
    break
    #terminates current loop
  print( letter )
for letter in alphabet:
  if letter == 'b' :
    pass
    #does nothing
  print( letter )

Example 3: how to end a loop in python

#the loop
for x in (1, 10, 1):
  #type break to end loop before loop stops
  break
